In this thread you can discuss how you think aspects of the people on the forum can improve. for example, if you think that RP's are to god-moddy or that some certain person is spamming too much (Use DAKOTH for anominimity*)

for example:

"lately DAKOTH has been in the buisness of flaming people and I think we all need to get along"

"People need to stop posting these *insert silly other forum topic here*!!"

there.. that made sense... I think..

Not trying to be mean, but many a times has he been lectured, but GhostJedi17 needs to read this:

http://rebels.myfreeforum.org/ftopic2452.php

and this post by our friend Rive Caedo

Quote:
Although I'll probably make my own "How to Roleplay" guide in the future, for now I'd just like to add these notes:

You can add emphasis to a word by bolding it, underlining it, or sometimes itallics (itallics are often best used for other modes of speech besides emphasis however, such as sarcasm: "Sure, I'll get right to work on that, sir."). This helps convey your meaning and speech patterns. Or a combination of them if something needs special emphasis.

Examples:

"There is no escape. Don't make me destroy you. You do not yet
realize your importance. Luke, you have only begun to discover your power. Join me and I will complete your training. With our combined strength, we can end this destructive conflict and bring order to the galaxy."

"I'll never join you!"

"If you only knew the power of the dark side. Obi-Wan never told
you what happened to your father."

"He told me enough! He told me you killed him."

"No. I am your father."

"No. No. That's not true! That's impossible!"

"Search your feelings. You know it to be true."

"No! No! No!"

"Luke. You can destroy the Emperor. He has foreseen this. It is
your destiny. Join me, and we can rule the galaxy as father and son.
Come with me. It's the only way."




again, not trying to be mean, just trying to help.

Oh, it wasn't directed at god-modding, its directing at form, grammar, etc.

I'm even known to mis-spell quite a bit of words.

It is kinda annoying...I annoy myself when I do it Very Happy

Don't worry about it Ghost, just read over everything before you post it!

Necto got out his lightsaber. (Lets use real sabers. and make it training.) "Well well well.' He said "Lets begin." He said again. he went into a spining motian and sliced at Bulter. then he jumped up and whent into Ataur. "Didn't see that now did you?"


Just a few pointers for ya, Ghost, heres how you can form it better.



((OCC: Let's use real sabers, and make it training))

Necto got out his lightsaber.

"Well, well, well" he said "Let's begin"

Necto went into a spinning motion, and sliced at Butler. Then, he jumped up and went into Ataru.

"Didn't see that coming, now did you" said Necto


I fixed a lot of the spacing, out of character work, and what have you in that post, also your spelling has a lot to be desired, one or two words is fine, but I fixed quite a few. Just take your time when you type, it isn't a race, because then people will understand better, and you won't have confusion.


Another example

Quote:

"that was good." Necto said. "But i'm not going down" Necto said still standing


"That was good." said Necto. "But I'm not going down"

Capitalization is also nice. Also, when you are refering to somemone speaking, you don't have to repeat yourself, if its part of the same line, what I mean is that it could easily be:

"That was good, but I'm not going down" said Necto

You wouldn't say it twice that way, now would you?

Ok, now I feel like I'm picking on you, not trying to, just helping you become a better Roleplayer.

constructive criticism is good Very Happy


i think people on this forum need to be more open to reading other people's fanfics as well (cough read jadens!) they put a lot of work into these things and really appreciate feedback. and If you start reading someone elses, who knows, maybe they'll read yours!

I think this is a great idea, and would be keen to see upon what I could improve, Very Happy.

Do be embarrassed. He's just giving you some help, not trying to get under your skin.

We're not watching people like a hawk and correcting their grammar every chance we get. We're just trying to help, because it gets quite annoying when someone roleplays with terrible grammar.

Rights, understandable, but its not a race, just take your time. People would much rather look at this:

Quote:
((OCC: Let's use real sabers, and make it training))

Necto got out his lightsaber.

"Well, well, well" he said "Let's begin"

Necto went into a spinning motion, and sliced at Butler. Then, he jumped up and went into Ataru.

"Didn't see that coming, now did you" said Necto


Then This
